Expression Tree Visualizer

Some of you may remember a rather handy ExpressionTree debugger visualizer that allowed the visualization of expressions. Basically it was extremely handy and a great way of getting to know the Expression API a bit better.

Unfortunately this was a VS2008 sample, and it does not seem to come with VS2010.

I had not been missing it as I have not been doing much with Expressions, that is until the other day, and I really started to miss it. So I set about trying to get it to work.

Change the references to point to this location for the DebuggerVisualizers.dll : C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\ReferenceAssemblies\v2.0\Microsoft.VisualStudio.DebuggerVisualizers.dll

Worked a treat and for those of you that are simply to lazy to do this work, here is zip file containing a valid VS2010 copy of a C# project that will build this Expression Debugger Visualizer for you:
